Can you hear me now?

We were studying the ear today, phyical parts and hearing. To experience what it would be like to have trouble hearing the kids watched t.v. with ear plugs in. Both of them were a bit surprised what it was like to have hearing that was so muffled. The girl, who wants to be called Dancer from now on here, didn't even realize she was listening in Spanish. We got great printouts of the ear from http://www.enchantedlearning.com/

This is a great web site for all kinds of educational topics and if you join you get even more access to the information they have. The cost wasn't very much and we more than get our membership fee worth out of it.

Grandma and Grandpa surprised us with a visit today. We are always so happy to see them. Seems we never have enough time to go to their house so they come to us every few weeks. Grandpa Bob finally wore the sweatshirt we gave him for Christmas last year. He always thinks he is tough and gruff but he so isn't. We thought this shirt was perfect for him and he hasn't worn it. The kids are always asking if he has and today he had it on just for them. Will he ever wear it again? Who knows, so we had a to get a picture of him in it. We think he looks pretty good!
